About this guide

The Camber Sands Beach Guide editorial team

An independent local team that walks Camber Sands most weeks. We are not a council page and we are not a holiday-let firm. The aim is honest, current, neutral coverage of the beach and its surroundings.

What this site is

The independent local guide to Camber Sands. Not a council page, not a holiday-let company. The aim is to be the single most useful, honest, current resource for anyone planning a visit to the beach.

Where the council pages are dry and fragmented, we give friendly synthesis. Where the holiday-let blogs are commercially biased, we tell you the downsides as well: the wind, the summer gridlock on New Lydd Road, the £30 day-parking cap, the long walk to the water at low tide.

What you will find here

How we keep it accurate

Parking tariffs, dog zone dates and lifeguard patrol windows are checked against the official Rother District Council and RNLI sources each spring. The annual refresh calendar follows the council's own timetable, so when tariffs change in April or zones come into force on 1 May, the relevant pages are updated within the same week.

If you spot anything out of date, please let us know and we will fix it.
